ARMET blocking peptide
ARMET Immunizing Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and golgi, and is also secreted. Reducing expression of this gene increases susceptibility to ER stress-induced death and results in cell proliferation. Activity of this protein is important in promoting the survival of dopaminergic neurons. The presence of polymorphisms in the N-terminal arginine-rich region, including a specific mutation that changes an ATG start codon to AGG, have been reported in a variety of solid tumors; however, these polymorphisms were later shown to exist in normal tissues and are thus no longer thought to be tumor-related.

Uniprot Description
ARMET: Selectively promotes the survival of dopaminergic neurons of the ventral mid-brain. Modulates GABAergic transmission to the dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra. Enhances spontaneous, as well as evoked, GABAergic inhibitory postsynaptic currents in dopaminergic neurons. Inhibits cell proliferation and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced cell death. Belongs to the ARMET family.
Protein type: Secreted, signal peptide; Secreted
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 3p21.1
Cellular Component: extracellular region; nucleus
Molecular Function: growth factor activity
Biological Process: response to unfolded protein
Disease: Pancreatic Cancer

Product Notes
The ARMET manf (Catalog #AAA426908) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The ARMET Immunizing Peptide reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat, Dog and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. The amino acid sequence is listed below: KFCREARGKE NR. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ARMET, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
